Whirlwind Scrapbooking

Last night I scrapbooked our entire trip to the Czech Republic. I spent between five and six hours. I avoided all the fancy picture cutting, including cutting into shapes. I cropped, but everything is either square or rectangle. I also spread my pictures out more instead of trying to cram a myriad of pictures into a small space, like I have a tendency to do. I put on some stickers and embellishments, but relied on the paper (I tore a lot) and pictures to convey the messages. I also did most of the background layouts previously, even before I had the pictures. I bought some neat paper at 50% off that looks like a collage of old wallpaper - great for an old European look. My one remaining task is journaling, which can obviously take a while. So at this point if anyone wants to look at it, they need either Jason or I there to commentate.

Three more projects: 1. Update Gavin's book 2. Update Peyton's book 3. Complete East Asia trip

I have my work cut out for me! (No pun intended.)
